Patient Endurance: Anthology of Poetry, 2022
For 5 and a half years, Connected and Useful has been storing up God's word in creative form: 500+ songs, 200 scripture songs, 11 books and nearly 2,000 poems and articles: all to help the church of God stay fed! May this, our newest poetry anthology, give you courage and edify you as you yourself store up and stay strong in these evil days.
Some of Joel's favorite topics to write about are prayer, God as our Father, and waiting. Joel resides in New Jersey, USA with his wife and three children. He has either authored or edited 11 books of poetry to date which are all available at his Amazon author page. In addition to writing poetry, Joel has released four full length music albums as a songwriter and worship leader; “Here’s to the Journey“ (2010), “Shepherd Songs“ (2021), "Here we come" (2023), and "The Psalms, Vol. 1" (2023) which are each available wherever online music is sold or streamed.
